Tag: Phospholipids
When it comes to phospholipids, we must talk about cells and cell membranes. Because all organisms—animals, plants, and microorganisms—are composed of cells, the outer layer of the cells is called the cell membrane, and many organelles in the cell also have membrane structures, and the main substances that constitute these membrane structures are phospholipids.
Phospholipids are lipids that play a decisive role in the normal metabolism of cells and normal life activities. There are different types of phospholipids. The content of phospholipids on the cell membrane directly affects the fluidity of the membrane, the location of proteins and receptors, and then affects the enzymatic activity and the transport function of proteins. The metabolic ability, self-healing ability, regeneration ability and overall vitality of human life are inseparable from phospholipids! Hence the saying: "There is no complete cell without phospholipids".
Soybeans, mushrooms, egg yolks, walnuts, nuts, fish roes, chickens and ducks, fish and animal offal, etc. People first discovered phospholipids in egg yolks, so they were often called "lecithin"; later, people found that natural soybean phospholipids are more abundant and more accessible sources, so now whether they are used as additives in industry or people use. Most of the phospholipids used as nutritional products and health care products are soybean phospholipids extracted from soybeans, but the name of phospholipids is habitually followed. If you are looking for different types of phospholipids and phospholipid suppliers, Pharmasources would be a great choice.
Because many modern people are worried about obesity, they deliberately eat less meat, especially fatty meat, animal offal, eggs, etc. At the same time, modern food processing is fine, refined oil, salad oil, etc. reduce the original rich phospholipids. Because phospholipids are not heat-resistant, their activity is easily lost when it exceeds 50 degrees Celsius, and cooking methods will also affect intake. On the other hand, children and the elderly are more likely to have insufficient intake due to the limited choice of food types and the ability to digest and absorb. Students' heavy learning burden, excessive brain use, and excessive pressure in white-collar life and workplace will consume a large amount of phospholipids and increase the demand.
At the same time, we all know that due to the increase of age, the deterioration of the living environment and the influence of bad living habits, a large number of free radicals are produced in the body. Free radicals will directly oxidize the phospholipids on the cell membrane, resulting in damage to the cell membrane structure, which directly affects the physiological function of cells. Some people liken phospholipid PC vividly as "the building material of cell membrane". Paying attention to the intake of phospholipid PC will have a positive impact on many of our bodily functions.
